For those who like to modify their car and add their own touch… what mods would you apply to your car first? Wheels, spoilers or performance mods, in which order would you modify your ride? What Top 5 Mods you would do first?

Going to be fitting my Ford USB music box and >USB panel< when I can drag myself outdoors.

Not doing too many mods also lets me stay with a mainstream insurer rather than having to go to a specialist and paying silly amounts. As I assume you all declare all your mods to your insurers to stay 100% legal?

1) Interior lighting first, especially to light up the footwells as they're dark at night
2) A thorough detail. Can't afford to buy new but like cars looking tidy
3) Revamp in the infotainment department
4) Some decent rubber. Tyres always get missed!
5) Next on the agenda: probably brakes

It depends on the car - good modifiing is "fixing" the shortfalls of the car, ie if you have an ST220 and you drive it hard - the brakes are barely adequate braking from 150mph (off road, of course!) - plenty power - poor traction, so st225 brakes and an LSD are on the cards

But -

Most modern Fords have great handling, and you don't really need bigger wheels/ tyres (bigger wheels (eg 18s) dont make that much difference and are mostly for looks, same with lowering the car, often the handling is worse

So if you have a 1.4L or 1.6L Fiesta or Focus etc, the standard brakes, wheels, tyres,/ handling are probably more than up to the job,(if looked after/ serviced + decent tyres fitted) and all you really need is MORE POWER
